The past few decades have seen remarkable technological growth in
the delivery of modern medicine. Pharmaceutical, diagnostic, and
surgical interventions have transformed the way in which health is
perceived and medicine is practiced. The modern patient has become
so dependent upon these therapies and interventions that they take
a passive interest in their health. For author Dr. Mark W. Hatcher,
this is a symptom of a culture in crisis-doctors treat disease
instead of fostering health. Using real-life examples from a busy
emergency room, he investigates this health-care crisis and
reevaluates what it means to be healthy. In "Beyond Desire:
Rediscovering Health and Wellness," Hatcher examines the
assumptions upon which the modern medical world is founded,
explores the healing methods that have been practiced for centuries
by healers around the world, and proposes a strategy for health
that focuses on the importance of the mind and spirit in achieving
and maintaining health. "Beyond Desire" shows how the practices of
meditation, yoga, tai chi, acupuncture, proper eating, and selfless
service are the true pathways to healing and rediscovering health
and wellness.
